Hi all,
I want to know the following. If I want to transfer 40 Gbps data, using a system which uses BER Test set, where do I set the bit rate? I have been doing this by setting bit rate in Layout design as I remember someone in the forum said that. But when I went through the BER Test Set I was confused. In the layout the Bit rate=40e+009 and symbol rate=10e+009. I am using 4 bits per symbol in QAM sequence generator and decoder. In the BER Test Set, I have set Bit Rate=Bit rate * 128/ 256. The evaluation gives a result, bit rate = 20e+009.
Now my confusion is, at what rate am I transmitting the data?
Thank You.
